Perfect Overview Of The Agarthic & Shambalic Underworld

Book title: The Lost World of Agharti: The Mystery of Vril PowerRating: 5/5Binding: Paperback

It's been some years since I read the first edition of this remarkable work. The book starts with a strange adventure I don't want to disclose to coming readers, but it surely is an invitation to embarge on a strange and interesting journey through history and underground tunnels. If you're in for suggestions of other civilisations in the past and the here-and-now, living in underground bases and tunnel-systems, eagerly waiting to visit the sunlitten surface again, then this is the book for you. Although MacLellan describe the various tales rather superficially, it surely can be a first invitation to research further into persons like Nicholas Roerich, Bullwer-Lytton, Ossendowski and other adventurers. It surely was an invitation for me...!

Clear and concise guide for anyone interested in Philosophy

The Penguin Dictionary of Philosophy is a clear, concise, and comprehensive guide to philosophic terms and thinkers. For this reader, the Penguin edition far surpasses the Oxford dictionary -- a book of roughly the same length and price -- as its entries are both clearer and more thorough. I would advise serioius students of philosphy and "street level" thinkers alike to buy this well-written, useful guide.

The Teacher Has Appeared

Book title: Rich Dad, Poor Dad: What the Rich Teach Their Kids About Money--That the Poor and Middle Class Do Not!Rating: 5/5Binding: Paperback

I have become a Rich Dad, Poor Dad, and CashFlow Quadrant believer and evangelist. Quite frankly, I couldn't put down either book and have undertaken the task of moving to the right side of the quadrant at lightspeed. I've also recommended both books to friends, and purchased copies of Rich Dad, Poor Dad for my teenage children. After reading Robert's books, it's like a light bulb went off. I now "GET IT", and am in the process of trying to help others do the same. Thanks Robert and Sharon for some lifechanging insights that go beyond the "what to do" by simply and succinctly explaining "how to do" and "why to do".

Point of View From a Distance

Book title: Autobiography of a FaceRating: 5/5Binding: Paperback

I read this book in 1995 and still regard it as the best autobiography I've ever read. Other reviews point out that Ms. Grealy leaves a lot of salient information out, but I believe it's due to her poetic training. Poets are supposed to paint a picture with few words, and she most certainly succeeds. In this age of tell everything, trite/neat endings, her story ends rather sadly in the book and very badly in life. But this is the way life is for many people. For me, the truth is refreshing and beautiful, even if devastating.

Gotta Get!

Book title: Gotta Go! Gotta Go!Rating: 5/5Binding: Hardcover

Gotta Go! Gotta Go! is both entirely delightful and wholesomely informative. Not only does it tell of wonderful, mysterious destiny and miraculous transformation, it also introduces the young reader to the idea of a larger world full of excitement and challenge. Adults may be aware of the gentle, ecologically aware voice in the work through introduction of the main charactar and her pursuit while younger readers will repeat Gotta Go! Gotta Go! when asked "What book?". The illustrations are colorful and deft, the prose elegant and simple. Gotta Go! Gotta Go! is another coupe, and like his book the Araboolies of Liberty Street, gives lesson while it delights. Buy this one, it's a winner!

The best treatment of the subject for the academic audience.

A NASA engineer explains the Out of Body Experience

Book title: Soul Traveler: A Guide to Out-Of-Body Experiences and the Wonders BeyondRating: 5/5Binding: Hardcover

I've always liked this book by Albert Taylor well enough to keep a copy or three around. When I occasionally encounter people who are experiencing OBE, but don't understand what's going on, I recommend this book. If I had to only own a single book about Soul Traveling, this would be it (though I'd miss Robert Monroe).

Taylor, like Monroe, didn't deliberately choose to have OBEs. Both men wanted badly to find any other explanation for what was happening to them. As men of science, each seemed to prefer to believe they were going mad, rather than consider the experience to be exactly what it appeared to be.

If you know nothing about OBE, but if you want to know about it with none of the hocus pocus, nothing but the observations a man of science makes of his own (involuntary, in the beginning) experiences, I'd strongly recommend you buy this book.

Very Brief, but Very Good

Book title: A Brief History of TimeRating: 5/5Binding: Hardcover

If you're new to physics and cosmology, you will not find a better intro to the field than in this book. Hawking has a knack at making the most abstract things sound remarkably simple and interesting. Since this is only an intro, you'll do yourself a favor by following up on this reeding with Greene's "Elegant Universe" -- a much more in-depth look at essentially the same concepts & more.

An entrancing, dark and romantic novel

Book title: The Phantom of the Opera: The Original NovelRating: 5/5Binding: Paperback

When I saw Andrew Lloyd Webber's musical take on this classic tale, I was mesmerized. The music was flawless, the plot was profound and suspenseful, and it left a mark that lasts forever. While waiting for the 2004 movie to come out on dvd, I decided to read the book that inspired it all.

Though the musical was unforgettable, the novel did clear a few things up. It's easier to understand why Raoul and the Phantom both adore Christine and fight for her tender love. The story explains the pasts of Christine and Raoul, how they met and fell in love as children. The book also tells more about Christine's father, who provides her with her musical education before the Phantom takes over. In the musical, he is a very minor character, while in the novel, it is clear that he is part of the reason why Raoul loves Christine and Christine has faith in the Phantom. A great read for anyone who is a hopeless romantic like me or has a dark side. A masterpiece!
